darkvibe · 01-20-2010, 08:00 PM

I don't. Maybe someone in that area does. I just got the dates and places in a list. No number of tables or anything like that was on it.

Is this just for older guns?

GreytSilly · 01-21-2010, 03:02 PM

No, this is the big spring show at Syracuse. There are about 1000 tables there. Anything and everything can be found there, although not necessarily at a bargain price.

Sleepr56 · 01-21-2010, 03:06 PM

I went last April (missed the fall show) and the prices were incredibly ridiculous. But again, there was a lot of political BS going on around that time last year.

I found 3 30-round mags for my 10/22, so that was a score. AR's were selling for rediculous prices!

I am hoping for a better turnout this year. (vendor wise). The place is always packed too.

Temporaryscars · 01-21-2010, 04:19 PM

Are you guys going? I've never been to a gun show, but I'd like to go to this one. Anything I should know ahead of time? Does it cost to get in?

darkvibe · 01-21-2010, 04:22 PM

Most are around $8 to get in the door.

Temporaryscars · 01-21-2010, 04:36 PM

Hmmm...in that case...maybe I won't go unless I'm actually looking to buy a gun.

Sleepr56 · 01-21-2010, 05:11 PM

I always go just to check out the weirdos and the inventory on hand.

I'd like to pick up some bulk ammo if it's a solid deal this year. So I may have to do some research on pricing first, haha. Or pick up some ammo tins for storage!

We will probably get a group to go when it gets closer.

Temporaryscars · 01-21-2010, 05:17 PM

Sounds fun, but the idea of paying $8 and then not buying anything is kind of meh.

We'll see when it gets closer though. I wouldn't mind picking of a Kel Tec Su-22.

jeffx · 01-21-2010, 05:39 PM

I'll be going to the Syracuse show the first morning (Saturday). I am still looking for some more G19 factory preban DF mags and maybe a few reasonably priced 10/22 hicap preban mags.

There are usually a lot of tables selling decent military surplus bags and other misc items also.

Do any of the NY Firearms vendors have tables reserved at the show? If so, I'll be sure to hit them up also.

Does anyone know what the CC policy is at this show?
